We got the stifest blow of the

serious damage resulted but loose
boards, signs, awnings etc, danced a
lively jig for an hour or two, and the
waves Of old Lake Superior tried hard
to jump over the light house, and
some of them seemed to accomplish
the feat. It was quite windy, and be-

we could neither 90 to church nor play

HIIlN

Signor Tiziano VermicelIi Titan was
born just before cold weather set in,
in 1477, at Cadore Junction, on the q. g.
r. Railroad, about seventy miles up the
line from Venice. For many genera
tions his family had been engaged in
the general fame and military distinc-
ton business, which had never paid
very we'll, and the old man, after he
was defeated for supervisor, soured on
the whole course of his ancestors, and
made up his mind he would get his son
into some profession which would bring
ducats and honor without changing the
combination.
The future artist, who was usually
called "Tishy" at home until he became
large and strong enough to bear his full
name, gave evidence, when only 10
years old, of his natural inclination.
He stole his sisters makeup box from
her dressing-table, and with only the
half-dozen colors to work with, he de-
corated his mothers rolling-pin in so
artistic manner that there was left no
room for doubt as to what his future
course must be.
The old man was delighted, and the
very next morning he took his son up
to Venice on No. 6, and got the Bellini
Brothers to take the byo into their
paint-shop on trial, at ten sesterzio a
week, and sleep in the studio.
He never swerved from his course for
any length of time. Once he became
enamoured of the stage, and joined, for
short time, the Sparticus, Danazellio,
and Rienzi Minstrel and Specially Com
pany, which was then playing in We
nice, at the old Canal Street Theater,
for one week only. He soon tired of
the sameness of the work of a burnt
cork artist, and returned to the picture
business. The fact is zealously con-
cealed by most historians. and as his
life was otherwise exemplary, and only
a very few of his minstrel Jokes are now
in use by the profession, this period OF
his life does not call for more than
passing notice.
AT first the ducats did not roll in very
rapidly, and Tiziano was often behind
on his board, and obliged to write to
his father at Galore for check. But
after time his pictures began to catch
op, and he was often obliged to work
late at night and on Sundays to keep up
with his orders.
In 1882 he painted q portrait of
Charles v. Now, the old monarch was
homelier than hedge fence, and the
brush-slingers who had tried their
hands on him before had usually at
tempted to palm off a picture of the
Apollo Belvedere on him. But Titan
said, II cannot paint lie, and the
likeness he made of the old monarch
stopped Mi the clocks in the castle
| when it was hung W, in the grand gal-
| lery. The King Mis- pleased at lest,

Well, it is Webster's spelling book.
Something over 50,OOO,0O0 copies of
this look have been published since it
was first brought out in Hartford, and
the royalties which old Noah Webster
received on it were sufficient to support
his family handsomely while he was
compiling his big dictionary. It's an

Why does Mrs. Mincingstep toe in?

Because he was built that way.
Why do men and women presentsuch

ners?
Because they are built that way.
If men are all ill-shapen in form be-
cause they are built that way, may it
not be that they are ill-shapen in NOR
ais for the same reason?
May man not be born thief, or a
gambler, or loafer, just as easy as to
be born poet, mathematician, or an
artist?
We often hear tell of born gentle
men; also of born cranks. Is not one
as possible as the other?

WHY MILL10NArREs AHOUNn

THY MILLIOSAIREs 14ROUND.
Free England and Democratic
America, says writer in Demorests
Monthly Magazine for April, lead the
rest of the world in very rich men.
The free play of modern industries and
tho absence of a paternal Government
favor the growth of enormous fortunes
in the English-speaking countries. Out
side Of the few Jewish bankers, such as
the Rothschilds and Herr Krupp, the
great gnn-maker, there are very few
millionaires ON the Continent of
Europe. In Prussia, Herr Krupp has
an income of 100000 marks (about
$1.250,00O of our money!, on which he
pays S37 900 tax to the Government.
Next comes Baron Rothschild, of
frankfort, with about $6S0,00O, and
Baron Bleiclireder, whose income is
about 100000. There are only two
other Prussians with an income over
100000 We beat the world in
millionaires. This is accounted for by
the fact that on the Continent the rail-
roads and telegraph are owned mainly
by the Government, and the profits on
transportation accrue to the benefit of
the national treasures. In the United
States the railroad and telegraph are in
private hands, and the manipulation of
their stocks, as well as the profits of
the business, go to pile up the enor-
nous fortunes of our Jay Goulds, Van
derbilts, Stanfords, Huntingtons, Sages,
not to mention the hundreds of others
who have become millionaires as the
result of manipulation in the stocks of
corporations. 1t may be worthy of
note, in passing, that wealthy real es-
tate owners, outside of the Astor
family, are not very common in this
country. Our laws provide for the
breaking up of great estates upon the
death of the head of the house, and
this puts check to nccumulations of
landed wealth in q few hands. But
personal property, in the form of the
ownership of shares in corporations,
can be better kept together in this
country, and it will be noticed that in
the wills of Commodore Vanderbilt and
his son, VIM. H., provision was made
for concentrating the wealth ON one or
two of the heirs. The Astor estate in
New York has been held together, it is
believed, by an evasion of the law
regulating the discount of bonded prop
erty. But the time must come when it
will be scattered among all the heirs.
